Hi!! I was thinking, what's your opinion about inktolings? Like I'm 99% sure they'll never be properly canon (due to various reasons including biology), but I wondered if you had any specific thoughts or headcanons about them. I'd love to know :')
in general, personally not a fan of the concept of hybrids in the splatoon world. if it were possible for stable hybrids to happen in a society comprised of so many species that have been intermingling for generations, i dont think we'd see the level of speciation that we do. it makes for messy worldbuilding.
inklings and octolings have had peaceful relations with each other for millennia and with how similar they look, i have zero doubt that some have tried for kids. but biologically speaking squids and octopuses as distant as cats and dogs (maybe even more distant than that, at least cats and dogs share a taxonomic order, squids and octopuses only share a class). the only way id imagine an inktoling to exist would be nothing short of a miracle, and would be sterile, likely with some kind of health issues. the sapient herrings in splatoon can produce hundreds of children and this likely applies at least to other species of fish too. for couples of different species who want children, i think there would be no shortage of children to adopt.

finally found a place to read With the Light online and i'm thrilled; if you haven't read this manga i do Legitimately recommend it
#N posts stuff#like don't get it wrong it Is Not a series about being autistic it Is a series about raising an autistic kid#but also don't be put off by that because it's legitimately a series that I feel Loves autistic people with its whole being#it's kind of a teaching manga so it showcases a lot of different opinions/characters/conflicts/etc. but the Framing is very consistent#in that the manga is Extremely of the opinion that autistic people are People who deserve to be Valued and Accepted As They Are#the onus for change is never put on autistic individuals the framing is basically Universal in the 'the World needs to change#to be more accepting' -- it's a very Social Model depiction of autism that ALSO never veers too far into the#'autism isn't even Really a disability' fallacy; it's very much a 'A lot of autistic people will need constant support in a variety of ways#throughout their lives but that isn't the roadblock preventing them from having their own lives; ableism in society is the roadblock'#the first two chapters are the hardest to get through bc they take place before Sachiko has any real understanding of autism and#so she's isolated and stressed out and the ignorance makes it difficult for her to care for Hikaru properly (there's also a lot of#other characters Blaming her for what's going on which goes unchallenged at this point though that changes later); but after she#understands what autism is she's Firmly in Hikaru's corner for the rest of the series - you can skip right to ch 3 without a problem#if you're not interested in reading about that initial conflict#there's still a Lot of conflict ofc but by then the chapters have some of my favorite moments so i don't want to advocate skipping#them; like Hikaru's daycare teacher explaining how Hikaru's difficulty speaking is the same as other kids' troubles with#things like jump-roping/etc.; and then a mother who has An Issue with Hikaru's presence in her daughter's class realizing the#depth of the problematic opinion bc Her mother (who had a stroke) faces similar ableism from her peers#i'm cutting this post off b4 the tags get Too long but if you're curious but still hesitant man. send me an ask and i will Happily#write an insanely long essay about how much i love this series; i have all the books i'm not excited about the online availability#for Me i'm excited bc i've been wanting to rec this manga for like almost a full decade and i can finally give you a link instead of#saying 'well. you can find used copies sometimes' lol

I always forget that Tom is a cop in Sonic Movie, he feels more like some kinda park/town ranger with how he cares for the town and the people in.
i don't really blame people for forgetting considering a lot of people only watched the second movie and toms job is only mentioned once or twice there and it's in a context where people who are watching the second movie with no knowledge of the first might not pick up on it

Just had the revelation that my parents really presented me with the opportunity to be the black sheep of the family both literally and figuratively by giving me a name often associated with "lamb" and not stopping me from wearing mostly black for over a decade now.

LAUGHTER IN THE END OF THE WORLD IS SOOOO GOOD I CRIED BC IT WAS JUST A ONE SHOT IN MY HEART IT SHOULDVE BEEN LIKE . IT SHOULDVE HAD THE PLACE AND LOVE DEMON SLAYER HAS. IT TRULY FEELS LIKE IT HAD THE POTENTIAL FOR THAT. SORRY FOR THE CAPS LOCK
LMAOOOO LITERALLY... one shot in my heart as well... I KNOW it was 5 chapter I KNOW it was a whole ass volume but it just FELT like a oneshot you know?? like it was only the tiniest glimpse inside this huge huge world...
It's not even like it was a self-contained story that had no more story left in it either. There was a CLEAR thing that the narrative would have eventually built up to, which is that if their way of living is hunting down the demons they'd eventually collect all the mouths... and then what? it really begs the question y'know???? the demon's coming back?? what's going 2 happen to haru and luca?
I have never watched or read demon slayer so idk how the two measure up but yeah. where I live anyways demons slayer has so much hype. it genuinely sucks (to ME) that miss tanabe's works are always so underrated </3
#asks#anonymous#laughter in the end of the world#I guess they both have guys with a little sister who's cursed in some way?#I will say that just based on my impressions haru seems to have much more agency than that other girl. nezuko?#like just in fanarts it seems like she's either depicted as 'girl who is seen but not heard'#or 'going feral and losing control of herself entirely'#I have so many feelings about haru specifically. I think it she really began the age of completely unfuckable girls for miss tanabe#good for her#like it is SUCH a good subversion of the 'girl who looks young but is much older than she seems'#because like. genuinely. her character design is unsexy. it veers so hard into abstract symbolism there's nothing there to sexualize#and like I think it's such a good depiction of kids too#like you know she's acting but these 'old but younglooking girls' often act childish in a cute way you know!!#but haru's like childish in a 'I have not yet learned self-control and I am going to pull your hair out for saying mean things :((('#which again. completely unfuckable. it's so great#but also the setup between the siblings is so crazy... they're literally built to be codependent#they actually can't live without the other and they will never be able to form longterm meaningful relationships with other people either#just the two of us we can make it if we try type beat#like haru will look like a kid forever. she will literally never be respected and will always need a chaperone in regular society#and then luca committed so hard to the bit that he also can't just... go back to being a normal person either#in my mind if it became a longer series I imagine it'd be a bit like mushi/shi... like standalone stories of a wanderer

has anyone here seen richard siken’s current twitter antics
#im like insanely aggravated it’s like ruining my day#he’s kind of delving into this topic of the current discourse surrounding speculating the sexuality of an artist and how people are#trying to twist some crazy don’t ask don’t tell scheme into the most appropriate course of action#don’t know if you guys are too deep in anime heaven to be aware of this but oh my god#i get a lot of like popstars on my twitter feed and it’s just people like if you think this famous person is gay you’re fucking disgusting#it’s bananas#but siken is getting involved now and he’s kind of proposing this theoretical to his followers#and they’re all like falling for it in the most ridiculous way#he’s saying like. if you found out i was straight would you think of my art differently#and they’re all like Nooo baby we’d support if you were het cuz sexuality doesn’t matter bby#and he keeps like dropping all these leading questions trying to take them to the water like#even if a reading erases queer history is it okay#and they’re like yes it’s ok ❤️#like it makes it so obvious and stupid i can’t believe these people are watching Richard siken#extremely important gay poet#get sucked into gaylor drama and their take is that he’s saying omg gaylors flopped sexuality doesn’t matter#don’t be stupid#he was like if i was straight it wouldn’t change the art would it ? And the answer is yes it would. fucking obviously.#but he’s getting into a lot of conflict with people#cuz like im always saying the greater society smoked so much homophobia that even gay people and allies are fucking CONFUSSD about what it#means to be an activist or stand for the cause of gay liberation

fellas the grind is turning my right arm into dust and there’s no sexual innuendo in there bc
Tumblr media
so to the keyboard we go instead!
#sneaky niki#lamb loose liveblogging#using this format again bc that edit is still funny to me#anyway I miss drawing#I would really like to draw some of YGG’s fits but with this fucked up hand situation that I have going on I don’t think I can#so to the typewriter we go#not literally although that would be great#me going *clackity clack* on one of those babies#it’s currently 5 and smth a.m.#theme of the day: YGG is impatient and bitchy and we love her#classic trope of: great character. terrible person#perfect time for a little exploration of her way of thinking#basically if you ask her to let you be for a couple of weeks or so she’s going to grow bored of you and remind you of your place#I feel like her unpredictability is her biggest flaw#she’s different from SDY in the sense that SDY does know how to play to society’s rules#he’s not pretending to be smth he is not. he just hides the scary bits in front of potential investors and clients#he even brought KJY a stupid plant once. it’s the bare minimum but he knows he has to do it otherwise people will nag about that#HDS on the other hand is split in half which can’t be healthy: he’s so ashamed to be seen as a gangster that he compartmentalizes too much#YGG has made her life The Trend. she is The Moment.#people want to be her and channel her power#imagine c//oco c//hanel but make it more evil somehow#the minute people think they got the YGG’s lifestyle covered from the A to the Z.. she flips and changes#and somehow she’ll make fun of you for even trying#she will steal your original idea and corner you for plagiarism#she’ll feel amused you tried to copy her and offer u a position in her company just to fire you before a big deal so you can’t reap benefits#she doesn’t abide to societal norms one bit. she makes new rules instead#and she gets away with it bc (in true Boa fashion) ‘she is beautiful ✨’#so yeah. HDS is dealing with THAT and signed a contract with THAT piece of work :I#no wonder KOJ tried to escape her#ok these are the vibes for today! have a great time peeps :)

Idc who this upsets, but I actually hated the whole forced mask wearing era with a burning passion. As someone with epilepsy which is aggravated by heat, it was absolute hell to have to wear that shit because (and fuck what y’all abled-bodies wanna say) it DOES impact my breathing and make me overheat. And I actually cannot just ‘go get a medical exemption’ because a) they don’t give that shit out like free candy, I had to go pay $500 to a neurologist to get that lil note, and b) I could staple that med cert to my fucking forehead and still get people losing their minds every time I went anywhere without a mask. Everyone like ‘oh disabled people are so terrified of COVID-19 so you should think of them before ragging on masks like this’ as though everyone ain’t already spent the last three decades of my life not giving a singular shit about my disability, but now suddenly want to act like they care about disabled people? Why tf should I care about giving anyone the spicy cough when no one has ever given a fuck how many seizures their actions cause me? Y’all want me to put my own health at risk by wearing this mask, so you don’t get a lil sore throat, when y’all will remain deliberately oblivious to epilepsy and other heat-related illnesses, right up until someone dies, and then you’ll still have a giggle about that too? Way more people be dying every day from heat-related illnesses than from COVID-19, so where’s my mandatory air-conditioning and icepack stations at every street corner? Fuck hand sanitizer stations, provide me a free cold drink. Additionally, mask wearing was the ONLY thing people got this fucking turnt about too. It’s not like any of y’all were social distancing (something which would have actually helped me with my disability lmao). No one was getting booted out of stores for standing on my damn heels every time I had to get in a queue. Anyway, after the first twenty times I got asked to leave a store for not wearing a mask (despite having that magical medical certificate) I made up my own mask by getting four of those ‘valves’, absolutely gutting the inside of them to allow unrestricted airflow, and then stitching them into a linen mask. Still uncomfortable, fo sure, but a lot better than having to deal with hot air on my face and under my sunglasses while already struggling not to pass out in the middle of the Australian summer.

I think Belos really suffers from the unfortunate constraints of 1) time, and 2) having to make a manipulative villain's lies obvious because he's in a children's cartoon. I just think Hollow Mind would be very fun if Belos, instead of instantly showing Luz and the audience memories that proved how evil he was, had tried to show himself as in the right. He chose the memories they viewed, after all.
#philip wittebane#emperor belos#I'll talk about this forever (because i want to know more of his backstory)#like! he goes to so much trouble to make himself seem good! but the moment he meets Luz and Hunter in his mind#he's okay with being evil in their eyes? boring! imo#like i guess he can easily write off Hunter. Hunter is very loyal to him at the moment‚ but the Grimwalkers always betray him#he's killed how many versions of his brother? he's resigned to it now‚ at the very least. no use getting attached!#but Luz is seemingly the only other human he's seen in centuries‚ and he likes her - he asks her to work with him multiple times#so. sure. he can give her his entire plan instantly‚ as though she'd ever agree to it. or... he could lie to her too#like he does any other time#if we had had more time‚ i think it would be fun if Belos tried to get Luz in his side by showing his perspective... a twisted view of it#she first met Philip being beaten up by demons! and she believed he was an innocent victim‚ and rushed to protect him#without the context behind that (that he had gotten their companion killed and eaten his palisman) he did seem innocent#i think he could have shown her more memories of that nature. mistreatment from wild witches#things that prove that magic needs to be controlled. that what he's doing is protecting people#but Luz knows wild witches. she knows Eda isn't evil‚ and that Belos's coven system is hurting people who can't be part of covens#or who simply don't want to be. people who aren't evil at all‚ but are forced away from society for not fitting in#and Luz knows all about not fitting in!

Goodbye 2023, Hello Trees
I'll be away from my computer for a couple of days as I do my annual "seriously, I need to see a fucking novel tree" camping trip. I'll have a little access to internet, but you know something being immersed in the moment, all hail fire, I must look at the moon tenderly like it is my own face etc.
2023 has been a year for me. My beloved first dog finished his story of 14 1/2 years. I sang to him in those last minutes, like I did when I first rescued him but now my voice sounds beautifully like me. My upper body now does that wonderful curve around the shoulders I associate with men when I take my shirt off. Once again I am reminded there's a real intersection between chronic pain, gender dysphoria and neurodiversity that allows me to see the world in a unique way. I'm lucky to have also found another wonderful community of weirdos. You all fill my day with joy and filth and remind me how attention is a moral act at brings aspects of things into being.
I hope you know I love you all. If you don't, please bear with me until I find the words, the way to arrange my face, the way to move my vocal cords until you know the warmth you bring to my life.

Genuinely I wasn't aware we were still meant to be wearing masks
As a bear minimum, I wear my mask anywhere I could conceivably be sharing space with a vulnerable person, particularly health care situations! Masks are an act of care to others as much as an act of protection to yourself 😊

hi! i recently came across your blog and i love everything i'm seeing! a quick question that i hope makes sense, tips on making ocs in the sims? when creating a character do you know off the bat their ethnicity and all those details or is it just randomly making them? i'm trying to create some characters that have been bouncing around my head but i get stuck on the details
hmmm ik the process is diff for everyone but me personally i usually trawl my face inspo pinterest board for ideas if i'm like deliberately making a character for Something... i almost never stick to a single face i usually cherrypick what i feel works for the character and kind of riff off of what i feel like their i guess place and emotional standpoint would make sense.. in. i guess 😭😭 im sorry im just saying shit but sometimes its random sometimes its not but i like to keep it as loose as possible initially and i decide specific ethnicity/religion/etc etc etc like... once i'm pretty much complete
